​​​HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK​​​

Last week we picked for Fraser's 'Highlight Of The Week' the EPL football game between Liverpool and Man United. It was a very one sided game with Liverpool easily winning 3-1.For this week's 'Highlight Of The Week' we again stay with Football (not much else to choose) and the Championship game between two sides chasing promotion, Aston Villa and Leeds. We hope this game will be entertaining and provide some excitement. The match kicks off at 8:30pm on Sunday evening and Fraser's will be showing the match live.

The AFL Comp is now closed for this season .... Adam W just managed to hang on to his one point lead and took the first prize of 20,000 Baht with 143pts but he was closely followed by Terence F, Brian L, John G and Stu S who all won 6,000 Baht ... this turned out to be the closest comp that we have run at Fraser's with the top fourteen tipsters all finishing within five points of each other. Onto next season. The NRL Comp is also closed .... and we had been predicting for a number of weeks the duo of Leo Adam and Stewart Cross would take out the two prize places. It ended with Leo edging Stewart by three points with a score of 123pts to 120pts We happened in our EPL Tipping Comp in Week 17? Did anybody get the Bonus Game score correct (3-1)? Most importantly did anyone win the weekly Rollover prize? Was there any changes on our main leaderboard?
